  • Our full living on a dollar a day in Nepal documentary. Check out our story and exact breakdown of our expenses: thetickettotravel.com/living-o....
    Thanks to Sudin KC for all his photography and videography work on this documentary! If you want more of Sudin's work, follow him on / sudinkcofficial .
    Subscribe to our channel and email subscribe on our website thetickettotravel.com to keep close tabs on what's going on.
    We filmed from July 17th-August 17th, 2015.
    Another Day, Another Dollar documentary was intended not as much as a look into life on a dollar a day, as much as a showcase on how to be content on less, and how life is like for us and others in Nepal.
    The documentary was originally divided in 4 parts, uploaded in November 2015, with a total time of about 45 minutes.
    The Rules
    So we came from the angle of already living here, not starting fresh. Locals living on very little already have a home, basic resources, maybe a bicycle or a motorbike for the family.
    Before we embarked on this challenge, we had to set some ground rules, and we will make things as transparent as possible for you.
    First up, keep in mind this does not include our visa costs, internet, or rent. Our visa is an expense locals don’t have but we need to pay as foreigners. And we were forced to get Internet ever since CZcams started refusing the submission of VHS tapes for video uploads. Not impressed, CZcams.
    Secondly, we chose a high exchange rate to use for the Nepali rupee against the American dollar, so we will be working with 107rps each/day as an average, although for simplicities sake, you can think of 100 rupees as one dollar or 100 cents. We will do it for a whole month with no breaks, meaning our budget as a couple is $60 for the month, or 6420 rps.
    This is around 20% less than one person earning minimum wage would make. Over 30 per cent of Nepalese live on less than US$14 per person, per month, according to the national living standards survey conducted in 2010-2011.The average daily income in Nepal is closer to $2 a day. Having said that, if we were to spend the average income during this challenge, we would have no problem paying for our rent as well. Keep in mind, though, many local families already own the family home and don’t have to pay rent.
    Our living on a dollar is not only our food. No, that would be too easy. It includes cosmetics, shampoo, soap, laundry detergent, vehicle repairs, and any medicine we might need. We are also using cooking gas, which costs about 8cents a day. Many people especially in the rurals don’t use cooking gas, but use wood fires instead for cooking, which if we were to do also would make it a lot easier to keep in budget. But easy is for losers. Just kidding… Since the documentary, we have been forced to cook on wood, and it is not “easy,” but time consuming. It does save about $4/month doing it that way though. But I’d rather pay for the gas in most cases.
    To make it easier to calculate our expenses, we put away lots of our stuff that we bought already to start fresh for the month and not get confused or tempted into using something we already bought before.
    As we considered what we need to spend on non-food items, we came to realize that this was more of a challenge than anticipated. Blah.
    Our Budget
    Not only did we stay in budget, but in 30 days we spent an average of $0.85 per day. As we were going according to the Nepali calendar of 32 days for that month of Saun, though, the money we saved allowed us to treat ourselves to a trip and nice meal for the last 2 days when we went to Sauraha, and Chitwan National Park.
    We thank everybody for their support in making this documentary and helping us get things going as “CZcamsrs” or “travel vloggers!”

    I visited Nepal and stayed for three weeks, hired a car and traveled all over the country, it was the best vacation of my life. I found that if you go to the hotels and eat you can get a lot more international foods and satisfy some of those cravings for not too much money but definitely more than a dollar a day. Nepal is one of the Hardest places to get to you but it’s one of the best places you’ll ever visit.

    i am indian living in this country as a maths teacher..one thing I can tell you is that nepal can teach the world true meaning of honesty and simplicity...All nepalese are not poor but most of people in this country prefer simple, minimalistic life which is usually considered as a sign of povery in other nations. money is necessory in life but we cant buy happiness !
    there are more than 6 million ( 1.8 mn in just india) nepali living in other countries who send back money to their families so they actually have more money but things are little bit expensive because nepal import most of it from india and china.
    nepal is LAND LOCKED country stucked between china and india which makes it hard to do something for wealth generation. but people in nepal are very nice.

    Great documentary. Unfortunately, I just saw it now (2020). I lived on a budget of one US dollar a day for two years in a rural part of southern India. I had one good meal a day (usually around 3-4 pm). The rest of the money was spent on traveling to villages. I felt really good and healthy. Why did I do it? Because at that time (around 2000), there was a UN statistic that a billion people in the world lived on a budget of about a dollar. I wanted to experience it. I now realize how much we overeat, eat badly, and waste so much food. I now eat two meals a day, eat healthy, and live a simple life. That experience was life changing.

For many, their worry is not the due date for a project, it's "what am I going to put on the table for my children today". Unfortunately in some parts of Romania it is the same, people working very hard to earn something that cannot be called a decent income. I love Romania though, it's a country I recommend to be on the "travel list" for everyone.

So my average daily budget was 7,7 $ including rents room in Pokhara during almost all time (2-3 $ a day) and including 14 days cycling on Anapurna Curcuit Route, where prices are growing up how you are climbing higher (for one hour of internet 6 $, cup of black tea 1 $, charging bateries 1 $ per hour...) and including a lot of stuff I bought there to renew my camping equipment. All at all I think I had been living there for 3-4 $ a day only for food with no missing anything, even nor beer :)

I am now in my sixties, I have never owned a car or any other motor vehicle, I have never had a microwave, I don't have TV, I don't drink alcohol or smoke anything. I grow what I can in my tiny garden on my 1/8th of an acre section with a 950sqft house.
      I love my simple life, and I find visiting developing countries as a missionary very easy and lots of fun!
      I have been to India, and last year I spent two months living with local families in Kenya and Uganda, and had a fantastic time.
      This year I am going to Nepal for a month. :-)

      Most people think running for money is life but to live with the basic need is good.If you want more u have to work hard and all the time what you do is running for money but your mind and soul becomes empty. we don't get time to relax our body. so try to live a life where you can be happy from within

The people, country side and lifestyle of nepal is so beautiful and the thing i like most about this documentary is that we often spend too much and have no discipline in our budget. We often also take things for granted and never thank our lucky stars for the luxury we have been given. The nepal people can afford to smile although they have very little and life is a constant struggle. Thanks guys ....wonderful documentary and i hope to see more.

    I can't urge you enough to avoid riding elephants or interacting with those kinds of facilities. They are some of the most abused animals in the world and even those born in captivity have to be beaten into submission. What we see as a beautiful oriental activity, is the result of years of torture and is the reason why there are only a few asian elephants left in the world today. Elephant mistreatment doesn’t stop after they’ve been tamed. Elephant camps continue to use bull-hooks in order to control the animals which we can clearly see in this video. The fear of being stabbed is what motivates them to work and allow riders. You both seem like lovely people and most tourists who ride elephants have no idea how horrible the reality actually is. Absolutely loved the video on the whole, just wanted to highlight an particularly dark aspect of what otherwise would have been a beautiful and rewarding moment

    99.85% people of Nepalese have their own house. though some of they are made from clay, grass, wood only. Those tents belong to Indian small temporary businesser the people who collect recycle from the most city. Those tents are the people from India. These Temporary people from India stay minimum 6 months to 3 years in average In nepal.

    Good documentary; Very well done.
    I think it's an interesting challenge, to live on a dollar a day, but on the other side I think, it is also important, to spend money, so that the people there make money.
    I was in Cambodia in July-August and it was a wonderful experience. Although there is a lot of poverty, the people are so nice -I love the country and the people. During the time there I would always try to spend my money in a way, so that the Cambodians would benefit from it. (Like staying or eating at places owned by locals and not foreigners).
    I wish you save travels and GODs blessing!
